TO ALL WHOM IT MAY OONCERN:

Be it known that I, HENRY STANLEY, of St. Johnsbury, Caledonia county,and State of Vermont, have invented a new and useful Improvement inAReservoirs for ICooling @rain and Flour; and I do hereby declare thatthe followingis a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which willenable others skilled in the vart to make and `use the same, referencebeing had to the accompanyingr drawing, forming part of thisspecification, in whicht l Figure 1 is a side view.

Figure 2 is a horizontal section taken in the line :c x.

Similar letters of' reference indicate like parts. A

This invention consists in an improved mode of' constructing a reservoiror air-chamber for cooling flour or grain hy exposlire to atmosphericair, which is embraced in Letters Patent granted to HENRY STANLEY, ofSt.`

vJohnsbury, Vermont, No. 40,313, dated the 13th day of October, 18623.

The nature of this improvement. fonsists in so constructing the frame ofthe* 'airchamber or reservoir, described and referred to in said LettersPatent by the letters J J J J J, that the sides of the frame shalhbemultiplied and enlarged in their superlres For the purpose of allowinr afreer circulation of air therein.

Instead of plain'flat sides enclosing the reservoir or air-chamber A,covered with gauze or other porous material, I make zigzagr orcorrugatedi sides a a ad, the projections `vextending inward inside ofthe receiver or reservoir, as shown in fig. 2 of the drawings. vBy thismeans the surface of gauze fort'he air to pass through is'greatly'enlarged, and made more effectual in cooling the flourfwhichallows the reservoir to be made much smaller and at iess cost. l

Having described my improvemenalil what. I claim as new, and desire tosecure by Letters Patent, i s- A reservoir for cooling grain korfiorini', when constructed by placing the posts.ther eof in zigzagposition, and surrounding them with wiie 'ganze orl other porousmaterial, thus forming air recesses a a upon the outside of the body ofthe grain or our, increasing'mhe surface of the grain exposed to theair, substantially as described,

and for the purpose specified.

HENRY STANLEY.
